Mountain Counseling & Training's 1st Annual Wellness Walk

We couldn't have asked for better weather for our first annual fundraising event to help raise funds for mental health services here on our mountain. Prior to walking around Lake Gregory, our nearly 50 participants enjoyed coffee provided by Higher Grounds Coffee House and learned about local resources available from Mt. Calvary Lutheran Church and Rim of the World Gym. Attendees also heard from Forensic Psychologist, Dr. Debra Warner. 

All funds raised at this event will directly impact children on the mountain by:

• Providing 10 hours of free academic coaching scholarships to students, with a strengths-based focus.
• Providing short-term counseling to 2-3 students who do not have insurance coverage.
• Allowing MCT therapists to purchase additional resources to better serve clients, including workbooks, journals, and other fun prizes for meeting their goals.​

​We'd like to once again thank our partners and sponsors who helped make our first year a success!

​We look forward to keeping the conversation about reducing the stigma against mental health issues going throughout the year and hope to see you back next May for another walk around our beautiful lake!
